Librarian and author. Enjoys swing dancing, food, and storytelling of all stripes. Lives in New England with a partner and a cat. I will admit it feels a bit overblown to have an author's page for one piece of flash fiction but I promise you I am working on some awesome stuff. ...more

Fascinating read. Definitely a singular perspective so be sure to Do Your Own Research but there's a good metaphor for community and how humans can work moving forward. Maybe I'm just too community and revolution minded right now. ...more

Kathryn’s Quotes

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“Cats were not, in her experience, an animal with much soul. Prosaic, practical little creatures as a general rule. It would suit her very well to be thought catlike.”
